Click on "Reverse to draft" button which is besides Update or Publish button. Then click on "Permalink". Choose "Custom Permalink". Mention the post's url name as you want. Separates the words by hyphen(-). e.g. how-to-write-blog-on-google-blogger.html. Don't use underscore(_) for words separation as google search engine considers underscore as a part of the word. If you wish that, google search engine should show your post as earlier as possible, then choose the name of post's url by which people search on google search engine. 
  

6. Checking number of worldwide views of your blog:                      
              You can check number of page views for your blog by again logging in to your blogger account by same google id and by clicking on "Stats"
